Abstract

A breast screening event was conducted during the homecoming festivities of a historically Black university located in a rural county in Mississippi. Two healthcare providers performed clinical breast exams for 26 African American women during the event. This was a prime opportunity to make breast screening accessible for non-elderly African American women.
